    Unhappy Diving into hardware device driver in Windows

    Hi there
    I built a digital circuit borad some years ago.It connects to parallel port and is controled via it.I control it with paralle port bits like Strobe,Data bits,Busy,... and I wrote a program for it in DOS OS.But now,I need a Windows device driver for it.I planed to write it by VC++,but I couldn't find any function which help to access paralle port bit by bit.I found that I have to use Windows DDK.But I have no any resource about DDK programming,no any sample source code,even I don't know what is a DDK project skletone.Can you help me with a simple code,or introduce me a good resource for it,or even get me any idea about it?

    Thanks in advance
